The review
On paper, Sheer Venom is an outside bet if you want Pure Poison for less.
Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Pure Poison's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
It is sold as an extrait — a high concentration, which usually means it sits closer to the skin for longer.
At $83 per 100ml it costs 14% less than Pure Poison — the 6th cheapest of 9 twins we can price.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Perfume Parlour publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
The original opens on bergamot, orange and mandarin orange, turns to gardenia, jasmine and orange blossom, and settles into sandalwood, amber and white musk. That is the brief Sheer Venom is working from.
Top
- bergamot
- orange
- mandarin orange
Heart
- gardenia
- jasmine
- orange blossom
Base
- sandalwood
- amber
- white musk
Crisp gardenia and jasmine over sandalwood, the bright, polished Poison.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
